  • Style Tabbed Panels widgets text
  • Background Colors
  • Constrain the width

You can style the text of a Tabbed Panels widget by setting properties for the entire Tabbed Panels widget container, or by setting properties for the components of the widget individually.

To change the text styling of a Tabbed Panels widget, use the following table to locate the appropriate CSS rule, and then add your own text styling properties and values:

Text to change Relevant CSS rule Example of properties and values to add
Text in the entire widget .TabbedPanels font: Arial; font-size:medium;
Text in panel tabs only .TabbedPanelsTabGroup or .TabbedPanelsTab font: Arial; font-size:medium;
Text in content panels only .TabbedPanelsContentGroup or .TabbedPanelsContent font: Arial; font-size:medium;

To change the background colors of different parts of a Tabbed Panels widget, use the following table to locate the appropriate CSS rule, and then add or change background color properties and values to your liking:

Color to change Relevant CSS rule Example of property and value to add or change
Background color of panel tabs .TabbedPanelsTabGroup or .TabbedPanelsTab background-color: #DDD; (This is the default value.)
Background color of content panels .Tabbed PanelsContentGroup or .TabbedPanelsContent background-color: #EEE; (This is the default value.)
Background   background-color: #EEE;

By default, the Tabbed Panels widget expands to fill available space. You can constrain the width of a Tabbed Panels widget, however, by setting a width property for the accordion container.

Locate the .TabbedPanels CSS rule by opening the SpryTabbedPanels.css file. This rule defines properties for the main container element of the Tabbed Panels widget.
You can also locate the rule by selecting the Tabbed Panels widget, and looking in the CSS Styles panel (Window > CSS Styles). Make sure the panel is set to Current mode.
Add a width property and value to the rule, for example width: 300px;.
